COURT HOUSE – With funding by the Greg DiAntonio Memorial Fund, local agencies collaborated to present Dr. Buzz events. The agencies consisted of the Department of Human Services, Cape May County Healthy Community Coalition, Cape Assist, Lower Township Healthy Youth Coalition, Cape Counseling Services and the Lighthouse Church. These free workshops provide “hands on” tools to proactively and reactively navigate “at risk” youth. “Part of substance abuse prevention is providing parents and educators with effective tools, skills, and resources, thus increasing protective factors for the youth,” said Natalia Wilber, Cape Assist Healthy Community Coalition Coordinator, “The better a parent or an educator can utilize these tools, the easier it will be for them to navigate through crisis. No one’s immune from stressful family situations, so anyone can benefit from these workshops!” Light refreshments will be available during the workshop.
